I would love to see if anyone could tell me anything specific about a storage jar ive got. It is found in the philippines on a very old shipwreck site. It looks chinese to me from my own research but thats practically all i know.

Philippine.

The wreck the where the OP found the jug was purportedly in the Philippines. The OP was thinking the jug looked Chinese, but the jugs you posted are identified as Spanish.

Chinese. And ive seen other too. The craftmanship is much more alike

And be careful when Googling "Spanish Jugs"

I believe the photo in my post “Mga Bangang Kastila” is the description of the jugs AARC posted. Look at his photo, then mine.

I do see the similarities. How i wish there was a local who could take a look at it hehe. I wonder how much its worth and if it is possible to sell it

When I asked you to look at AARC's photo I was talking about the descriptive plaque in front of the display. Although it's cropped in AARC's photo, I believe that the photo I posted is the entire plaque in front of that display.
